Ok so first thoughts on Innistrad....

Well it's good & I suck at it... but thankfully Our local undefeated Champion is going to write a bit of a guide later this week...

I did come up with some opinions though so here goes...

Firstly Use dark colour or more expensive sleeves unless you want to announce your transforming plans to your opponents...

I was right about the triggers, hands went up all day ....

Don't build a 3 colour combo mill recursion control deck.... (I tell myself this every Pre release and one day I'll listen...)

My recommendation for first draft pick is

Ludevic's Test Subject    This card is the nuts...

Gavony Township is insane in sealed

There is ZERO removal and you'll probably spend most of your games trading 2/2's until someone drops their bomb...

Miss Aniela

I saw this and had to share it...Everytime I look at this image, I get motion sckness and giddy...

Truly one of today's masters of photography (and digital art)

Back to magic for a change...Innistrad Prerelease Weekend

Double sided cards? what is this madness?

I shall be reporting throughout the weekend... follow me on Twitter if you'd like to recieve humourous, but generally bad advice on the day...

I can exclusively reveal that the judging fraternity are "bricking it" over the the new transform rule.



I personally reckon it's going to basically lead to lots of warnings as confused players miss trigger after trigger... (in fact if you really, really, really want to win some games this weekend... learn the transform trggers from the spoilers here 

Actually guys, don't, because it'll just make you look like a dick)
